![]() The majority of 2 edition AD&D setting take place in what is known as the Prime Material Plane (Ravenloft is an exception). It doesn't make sense but at the same time it does. You may say that's impossible and well you'd be right but at the same time you'd be completely wrong. The Planes and Cosmology of the Universe Planes are infinite rings but contain borders. It was more of a translation of the 1 edition AD&D Manual of the Planes to fit with 2 edition rules as well as a rewrite to remove any mention of angels, gods, demons or devils to avoid further criticism about how Dungeons & Dragons was a pathway to Satanism (a part of the overall Satanism panic of the early and mid 1980s). Now Planescape wasn't really a new setting as such. One of the last of these settings was Planescape. These included the SpellJammer outerspace setting, the Gothic horror setting of Ravenloft (an outgrowth of an earlier independent AD&D module), the Arabian Nights setting of Al-Qadim (technically part of the Forgotten Realms world of Toril), and the Dark Sun setting which owes a good deal to Conan the Barbarian.
